E.g. to select channel 20 press on the
keypad.
To select single digit channel numbers (e.g.
channel 5) either press or simply press
and wait a moment. The channel display
will flash for a few seconds then lock onto
channel 5.
Note: Channel numbers greater than 100 cannot
be entered via the keypad. Select channel
numbers greater than 100 (e.g. UHF CB
installed as channels 101 to 140) by pressing
the or key.
Alphanumeric Labels
As well as identifying channels by their channel
numbers, channels may be programmed with a
5 character alphanumeric label. Using labels
with meaningful names makes it much easier to
identify channels.
e.g. The channel you normally contact your
office on might be labelled
OFFCE
while a
construction site channel might be labelled
SITE1
. In this way you no longer need to
remember which channel numbers to select,
you simply select the required channel by its
label.
Alphanumeric labels are preprogrammed into
your radio by your dealer.
ACTIVATING THE BACKLIGHTING
Your TX7000's Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
features built-in backlighting. The backlighting
is normally switched off to conserve battery
power, but will switch on automatically when
any key is pressed. To switch the backlighting
on without activating any other functions, briefly
press the key. The backlighting will turn
off automatically after 5 seconds.
LOCKING THE KEYS
Use the key to disable the keys on the
front of the radio. This will prevent unintentional
key presses from making accidental calls or
altering your settings. While the keys are
disabled, only the Push-to-talk switch and
the and lamp functions will be available.
To lock the keys, press and hold the key until
a high beep is heard. The symbol will appear
on the display.
To unlock the keys and restore them to normal
operation, press and hold the key until a low
beep is heard. The symbol will disappear
from the display.
TRANSMITTING
Before transmitting, check to see if the channel
is already in use (i.e.
BUSY
will be displayed
and the LED on the top of the radio will be
green). If the channel is busy, you should wait
until it is clear before transmitting.
To transmit, press the Push-To-Talk (PTT) switch
on the left-hand side of the radio and speak into
the built-in microphone located just below the
speaker. Hold the radio about 2 - 6 cms
from your mouth and slightly to one side so that
you are speaking across the microphone, not
directly into it. When talking, speak at a normal
voice level. The microphone is quite sensitive
so it is not necessary to raise your voice or
shout.
Note: Your radio may have been programmed to
prevent you from transmitting when the channel
